ya i am, are you referring the guy that tried to dunk on me? if so, you misread, he was 6'2

38 at 6'8 is damn nuts though for sure, nearing lebron status.

i read somewhere that lebron's running vert was 44" {on hoopsvibe}, ifso that be damn close to 13' touch...........

ya i wouldn't doubt it is, max, i mean ive seen him head well over rim, especially on his mcdonalds all american dunk contest..

hey can you url me to that vid you were talking about? can't find it.

looks like ur enjoyin ur hoops again...

38 inches at 6'8... that would be jawdropping to see in person, for me..

Thanks again for the insight! I have been thinking about a time efficient way to organize the power/peaking block and incorporate STIM while maintaining strength. I also wanted to include regular tests of VJ and max strength for good evaluation. If things go as planned, max strength should stay about the same while vertical jump goes up. If vertical jump stagnates for X test sessions in a row, the power block is over. If max strength goes up, so will the loads for the power exercises.

Code: [Select]

day
1   MSEM + power training
2   rest
3   rest
4   VJ test + power training
5   rest
6   power training
7   rest
8   strength training
9   rest
10  rest
So a whole cycle will take 10 days with 3 power training sessions and one max strength training session with a more conventional approach (either 3x5 or something along those lines).

Does that look reasonable so far?

yes that looks good for sure.

no prob dude, was planning on starting next week anyway.

hip today was alright.. but if u look at rip's link,

http://www.eorthopod.com/sites/default/files/images/hip_trochburs_intro01.jpg

its the white spot beside the red zone that rip mentioned..

damn, can't have that become chronic or get any worse, i had that for a few months and it sucked hardcore, stopped squatting "deep" as a result, my vert thanked me and so did my hip.

Ok well, you've been in strength phase for a while now, so we should try and peak and feel really fresh.

I came up with some stuff but, I need to know if you can jump for PR's on saturday, say, before you game, or if after your game you feel fresh and can jump for PR's after? if you can the structure will be alot nicer, because that would be the best day to go for PR's...

???

One of the workouts would be this, but day 2 & 3 depend on what can be done on saturday:

Day 1: STIM
- BIG WARMUP
- SVJ's: 3x3 after warmup svj's
- 1-step lead in RVJ's: 2x2 (after warmup rvj's)
- stiff leg ankle hops: 2x3
- 1-step lead in RVJ's: 2-3x3

- Depth jumps: 2x5 from ~18-24"
- REA squat: 3x3

- C1: MSEM squat: 2 x 3 (~30s rest between reps, reset & rerack bar between each rep), 85-90% 1RM
- C1-rest: 5 minutes
- C1: jump squat: 2 x 5 (~30s rest between reps, reset & rerack bar between each rep), starting at 20% 1RM

- CORE




so just need some feedback on the saturday thing.. how do you normally feel after saturday too, for example, sunday? you feel fresh? i wouldnt imagine you'd be too run down?

peace man sorry for delay, just need some more info.

according to that pic with the ruler, it looks like you were getting mid 30's probably or even higher unless i'm looking at it wrnog.  You supposed to look at the lowest point of the feet or highest?

bw 158, got 10 hours sleep from 12:30am to 10:30am, felt good

basketball court stuff:
- dribbling/jumping/lots of jumpers
- got up nice on a few dunk attempts, rim was like 9'11 bent down about 1", i made one on it

workout stuff:
- incline pushups
- jump rope intervals (4 x 2 min)
- single leg rfi , 30 each side, lat and lin
- double leg tuck jumps: 30 (TRAPS CRAMPED SO HARD DURING THESE)


tonight will be pullups and stuff.


based on heels this is probably ~32", based on hand it'd be higher but rim is bent down 1 inch or so.. this was my highest jump of the day, everything else was 1-2" lower:





here's an old image i used to use to look at how high my feet were, based on comparison pics:








peace

well, those measurements would be, if my legs were locked out in the air + flat footed, so no not really counting the lowest part of foot because that's with my ankle plantar flexed.. somewhere up near the start of the bottom of the heel..

to me it looks around 32 based on the pic compared to my leg measurement, though I did feel like I was really getting up good..

peace man
